How to Choose the Right Planter for Your Space – A Farmetos Style Guide
🏺 The Pot Makes the Plant
At Farmetos, we believe a planter isn’t just a container — it’s a statement piece. Whether you’re nurturing a leafy monstera or a charming succulent, choosing the right planter can completely transform your space — visually and functionally.
In this guide, we’ll help you pick the perfect planter based on size, style, and setting.
1. Size Really Does Matter
A small plant in an oversized pot looks awkward. A large plant in a tiny pot? That’s a recipe for root binding.
How to choose:
- For small indoor plants (succulents, herbs), go with compact or tabletop planters (6–8 inches).
- For medium-sized indoor plants, use 10–14 inch planters that offer root space but don’t overpower the room.
- For outdoor plants or statement pieces, opt for large or tall planters (18+ inches) — especially in entryways or balconies.
2. Match the Mood of Your Room
Your planter should complement — not clash with — your décor.
| Décor Style | Recommended Planter Finish |
|---|---|
| Minimalist | Matte white, soft grey |
| Boho/Organic | Textured clay, warm stone |
| Industrial | Charcoal, black cement-look |
| Luxury/Modern | Glossy metallics or polished fiber |
Farmetos FRP planters come in versatile finishes like natural stone, wood grain, and smooth matte, giving you designer freedom.
3. Indoor vs Outdoor? It Matters.
Indoor planters need to focus on aesthetics, while outdoor ones must stand up to the elements.
- Indoor: Choose lightweight, non-porous FRP pots with clean finishes.
- Outdoor: Use UV-resistant, water-resistant fiber planters that can withstand heat and moisture.
💡 Bonus: All Farmetos pots are weather-resistant, making them perfect for both environments.
4. Don’t Forget Function
- Drainage: Essential to prevent root rot. Ensure your pot has a built-in hole or inner liner.
- Weight: Lightweight planters like FRP are easier to move and rearrange.
- Durability: Our handcrafted pots are made to last — no chipping, no cracking.
